Additive Manufacturing: A Comprehensive Review

Author : Pradeep Jain 1 Tarun Bhardwaj 2

Date of Publication :21st July 2022

Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) is the prominent technology that is used to manufacture the 3D components of complex geometry and customized shapes. Owing to the requirement of the complex shape structure in various industries including aerospace, medical, automobile etc., the demand of AM has been increasing every year in manufacturing field. This paper explores the development, application and basic knowledge of AM, and current challenges and future trends. The basic properties of AM and its evolution in manufacturing industry helps in design flexibility, processing, multi-material selection etc. This paper provides the basic knowledge and paving the way to overcome the current barriers and motivate to do research on future trends.
